About: 🩷 I have been around dogs since I was very young! With that being said, I currently have one of my own and have watched many dogs and cats for friends and family! I absolutely love spending time with animals and making it a priority that they feel special and loved! Your animals will love me! 🩷 *SCHEDULE CHANGE* I am now working Monday-Friday 8AM-4:30PM. I am still available after work and all day on Saturdays & Sundays. Thank you so much! My dog is trained to stay in my yard and has free roam of the house.

About: I've taken care of my family and friends pets for them since I was a kid. I have experience with larger breeds like rotties and Danes as well as small dogs. I'm currently working part time and have a pretty flexible schedule so I can watch your pets and take care of all their needs without stress. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of toys and a big area for them to run around in as well as two neighbor dogs that they can play with if they need socializing.

About: I've been caring for animals most of my life, from growing up with family dogs to being a dedicated cat owner for the past four years. Caring for pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and giving each animal the love and attention they deserve. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm committed to providing dependable, personalized care and treating every pet like they're part of my own family. I'll always follow your pet's routine, keep you updated with photos, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm available Monday through Saturday during the morning and afternoon for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I have a flexible part-time schedule, so I'm happy to work with your pet's routine whenever possible. Sundays are my day off, so I'm unavailable that day. When caring for your pet in your home, I'll follow their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of playtime, walks (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I'll also keep your home tidy, clean up after your pet, and provide regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for in the place they know best.

About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I currently have two dogs, two goats, two cats, and one chicken. I love caring for pets and I find pets to be comforting. I provide only the best care and I am a trustworthy pet care provider. I have 5 years experience in taking care of pets. I love cats and I understand their many mood swings haha! Pet care fits in perfectly with my weekly routine. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to be with the pet(s) anytime. I know some pets may require having more potty breaks and I am well equipped to handle that task! I care for pets by walking them, letting them outside to go to the bathroom, feeding them, playing with them. Some pets may require more attention than others and I am able to provide that to your pet!

About: Taking care of your animal will be my number one priority. I love animals, I will be more than attentive to their needs and accommodate anything you would like. I’m available any time you need me and I will take in any animal, big, small, furry, hairless, you name it! I love them all. I’ve had animals my whole life so I know how to take care of dogs, I’ve had cats now for 5 years and kittens and it’s a handful but it has taught me so many things needed to be a perfect sitter! I love getting pets toys, and fancy food sometimes to spoil them so expect that (if it’s fone with the owner) of course. I can’t wait to meet you and your lovely pet!

About: I truly love pets and enjoy taking care of them. I regularly care for my brother’s and my boyfriend’s dogs, so I’m very comfortable with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and giving lots of attention and affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs! Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for dogs on a daily basis. I plan my schedule around their needs, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and relaxation. I care for pets in their home by following their routine, providing feeding, walks, playtime, attention, potty breaks and making sure they feel safe and loved.

About: I have always loved animals, especially dogs! I am a responsible, energetic, caring person that would love to take care of your pet! Your pets are part of the family, just like mine. I have experience dog sitting small to medium sized dogs. I am not strong enough to walk or care for larger dogs (unless of course they are great on the leash walking). I do not discriminate against any kind of breeds. I have two dogs of my own that are chihuahua and chihuahua mix. I have cared for small chihuahuas to larger pit bulls. Just message me with your needs as I work part time as a dental hygienist so I will work around my hours. I, also, volunteer at a wild animal rescue where I get to care for raccoons, foxes, deer, possums, squirrels and rabbits under the supervision of a veterinarian. I love animals of all kinds! Caring for animals is a passion of mine !

Hey there. My name is pattie and Jordan came to walk both of my dogs. He was great! His communication couldn’t have been any better. My dogs are like my children, so I love to know when he arrives, leaves and filled the dog bowls with food and water. He was very attentive. I will gladly be rebooking in the future.

About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets with different needs and routines. I have taken care of a 1-year-old cat along with 3 other adult cats, including a cat who required at least 30 minutes of playtime and interaction every day. I have also cared for a large dog who ate home-cooked soup mixed with his food at specific feeding times, as well as a husky who stayed in an air-conditioned dog house unit and required daily vitamins and attentive care. I am good at following direction for the desired care you and your pet need. I work remotely and any activities I plan I would plan around a schedule if at all with the pet in mind. I will plan in advance for the openings I have in my schedule to permit me to be with the pet. I typically stay in the pets home to create a less stressful environment for the pet and go about its daily routine as instructed by the pet owner. I will stay as long as required by the pet owner or stay in a guest bedroom all day depending on what makes the pet owner most comfortable with.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Hopkins Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Hopkins Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Hopkins Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Hopkins Park.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hopkins Park. On Rover:

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
